Shadow From the Past
Chapter 129

"Anatha!"

Vano's voice calling Elvina sounded thunderous. The man went down the stairs in a hurry and approached Elvina in the dining room.

Elvina looked at her husband confusedly. I don't know what made Vano call out to him from afar.

"Why the hell? 'do you know I'm in the kitchen why call me?"

"You're the one who killed my phone? huh uh?! how sassy are you!"

"Kok's mad?" Elvina looked at Vano with a sharp gaze. The cell phone thing was turned off until it made Vano angry like he wanted to swallow himself alive.

"Well, how am I not angry?! you killed my phone when someone called,"

"I'm maturing because of the noise! who is calling you? hm? your affair? okay sorry if you really don't like that phone I'm matiin. Let's not disturb me who has nothing to do with you, you better be silent your new phone. 'It's good, too, so I don't know if you're still secretly communicating behind my back,"

Vano clucked slowly. He sat in a rough motion in a chair facing the bread and drinking water that Elvina had prepared.

"Where's your medicine? not brought? I told you they were taking the medicine. So don't remember him as much! medicine to yourself until you forget! busy with your phone!" ketus Elvina as she passed from the dining room left Vano who gritted his teeth irritated. It'sit's nothing. He just doesn't like the sassy Elvina. Not once twice Elvina did. Ever read people's messages, ever turn off people's phones too, keep turning off their phones.

Elvina rushed to the room to take the medicine that Vano had to take for the man to recover. He was scolded, he still had feelings. If only He would not care, He had let the man not take medicine so as not to recover.

Elvina brought the medicine to the dining room. He just put it on the dining table, right in front of Vano.

"No! taken to heal and do not ngerepotin,"

Indeed Vano alone can hurt his heart this early in the morning just because of the mobile phone. He can also. His words might hurt Vano's heart.

"What am I taking?"

"Just ask yourself! I was so angry this morning just because I had a cell phone. Upset because he called you didn't pick up? ask to take care of him there! why are you still here?"

"I'm sorry to bother you;"

Elvina rolled her eyeballs then passed in the kitchen to approach Amih.

"Mih, do not need to cook, we buy porridge for breakfast. But if lunch is ripe gulai aja,"

"Oh yeah, Mom, ready,"

"But then please accompany me to the minimarket shopping, 'the food is already in the run out as well,"

"Ready, Mom,"

"I'm taking you?" Vano heard Elvina's voice talking to Amih and he took the initiative to drive his wife to the minimarket. Perhaps with that, Elvina did not sniff anymore. He was a little sorry for making his wife's mood bad in the morning. Yes, even though it was upset because of Elvina's sassiness.

"Not necessary,"

"Where are you going?" vano asked his wife who passed from the kitchen and dining room.

"It's none of your business,"

"Don't do that, you'll run to the bar again,"

"Thinking dong! where there's a bar that opens early in the morning gini,"

"Who said? there's a, uh,"

"Remain there early in the morning? I want to ride a bike!"

"Oh different? just talking about it, you have to say it first. Same with me yuk,"

"No, just get angry. You'll get sick, you'll take it for a second on the road,"

"Geez, why am I doing this?"

Elvina shrugged her shoulders briefly then continued her steps into the room to change clothes. He decided to exercise on a bicycle later then look for porridge for breakfast. It has also been a long time since he walked around the housing complex.

"Darling, same with me,"

"No, sweetie, I heard it,"

"When I asked why I didn't call baby again it was my turn to call baby instead didn't want to,"

"A turn has been a new cheating will deh dear, for a diversion huh? so I can get angry with you again? so that I'm not scribbling any more info about you and your infidelity?"

"I'm coming!"

Vano had left the dining table and he immediately prevented his wife from leaving alone.

"I'm coming with dong, El,"

"I'm not talking to you! understand no? I'd like to be alone, anyways he said you're sick, it should be rest instead of out,"

"I'm like not working, I want to be different with you, I won't be okay, just calm down, can ya?"

Elvina shook her head after putting on her head protection.

She started riding her bicycle leaving her husband breathing violently.

"It's not often a sport together,"

"Gue told to rest? where can? eat out. But still dizzy,"

Vano finally went inside again. Elvina really does not want to exercise together.

"Sir, why is breakfast not spent? is that the medicine on the table already drunk? Mr. Vano's sick, right?"

"Yes, Mih, that was because I wanted to talk to Elvina so she left her breakfast first,"

Forced Vano to leave the dining table because he wanted to pursue his wife to take Elvina on a bicycle together but unfortunately Elvina did not want him to come.

Vano glanced at his vibrating phone on the dining table close to his hand. He quickly answered the incoming call.

"Hello, Del,"

"So call me why didn't I pick up?"

"Sorry was Elvina who killed her cell phone. By the way Elvina doesn't exist anymore,"

Amih clearly heard Ken's words even though he was in the kitchen preparing cooking ingredients for lunch.

"Sir Vano who is it? how come there's no more Mom talking? what if my mom doesn't exist?"

Vano's voice was not heard anymore. He wondered if Vano had left the dining table or if Vano had finished talking to the caller.

"Why, Mih?"

Seeing Amih who was surprised when she found him still at the dining table, Vano asked.

"Ah no, sir,"

"Don't tell Elvina that I called you earlier,"

The forehead cringing deeply. He really did not understand why Vano spoke like that as if something was covered up from Elvina.

"Whose phone did Mr Vano call if I could know?"

"Delila,"

"Why can't you know, sir?"

"Later to fight,"

"Well, if you don't want to fight, don't look for trouble, sir,"

"I'm not looking for trouble" said Vano, chuckling lightly.

"Keep why can't you know? I'm sorry before that I was presumptuous, but Mr Ken doesn't mess around, is he behind Mom? Mr. Vano is still in love with mom, right? it's a shame that you and Mr. Vano are okay,"

Vano just smiled after that gulp down the medicine and drinking water. Then he left the dining room where there was still Amih who stood confused with anxious feelings as well.

"Oh Allah, protect their marriage. Hopefully Mr. Vano does not mess around, kasian mother. My mom started to change when I saw it. Just because Mr. Vano likes fishing, it ended up being a fuss. I think Delila was often the cause of their quarrels,"

*****

"Mba, tumben nih seperation, alone again,"

"Yes, it just so happens that you want to get some fresh air, Mom,”

"Oh, isn't it the same Mas Vano?"

"No, she's not well anymore, so I told her to rest at home, anyway,"

Elvina was shocked when she was busy pedaling her bike alone, suddenly someone approached her bike as well and she who seemed to be the same age as her mother was a neighbor who was three houses away.

"Oh yes later come yes to the four-monthly event my daughter-in-law. Next Wednesday actually but want to say now afraid to forget again meet,"

"Well God willing if there is no obstacle I come, Mom. Four months ago, Mom? new feeling yesterday I know you're pregnant, no time running yes,"

"Yes, when are you coming?"

Already Elvina expected to get a question like that. Lazy He answered. Especially in the midst of the chaos of his household that is now happening.

"Just pray, Mom,"

"Aamiin, just relax young people, right? again enjoy the courtship time together Mas Vano huh?"

Elvina laughed but inwardly grumbled. "Dating? he's the one who's dating people, too,"

"Later if you are pregnant carefully yes, well guarded, darling,”

"Yes, ma'am, thanks for the message,"

"So it's a pity if it ends badly. Hopefully later if you get pregnant healthy yes continue the content yes, you also need to be healthy,"

"Aamiin, thank you, Mom,"

"I was sad when I heard you had a miscarriage. Only I am sure you can rise, after all there are still many opportunities, do not be hit if you are given the trials,"

"Yes, Mom,"

While exercising, while listening to soothing speech. Not in vain Elvina paddled her bike this morning. Although he was a little annoyed at discussing the child, but he was happy because Ms. Sutya did not speak sharply to hurt her heart, it was even wise to say so that He would be better in facing the test of life.

"Oh yeah, sometime ajakin Vano too. Usually I'm the same boy I'm just this he'll take his wife to check the contents in the hospital,"

"Yes, I'll be sure sometime, Mom,"

******

"Mih, I'm going for a minute. If Elvina asks where, tell me I'll have a coffee outside for a second,"

"Lho Pak Vano is no longer sick? how not to rest, sir?"

"Yes, I will rest, I will not do this job. I'll say goodbye, Assalamualaikum,"

"Guilipinam,"

"Hurry up, really," muttered Amih when he saw Vano who stepped quickly out of the house after saying goodbye and left a message if the wife later asked about his whereabouts.

"Hadeh, Mr. Vano if you go in such a hurry when again the pain continues to run out the phone of another woman who you can't know, my mind is going to be everywhere, how the same mother try?"

*****

"Would you eat porridge?"

"It just so happens to buy, Mom,"

"Woah, let's stop, then,"

Elvina's bicycle and Ms. Sutya stopped near the chicken porridge vending cart.

Elvina saw two sellers who were one porridge and not far from the porridge there was a vegetable ketupat.

"What do you want? ask him to leave,"

"Assalamualaikum, hello, Mih,"

"Waalaikumsalam yes, ma'am,"

"There's a vegetable lontong with chicken porridge. What do you want?"

"Not bother, Mom. I'm so easy, the ones at home can be eaten, too,"

"No, eat what I want to buy. What do you want?"

"Lontong, Mom, before thank you, Mom,"

"Okay lontong yes. Vano exists? please ask her what you want?"

"Sir Vano just came out, ma'am. He said he'd have a coffee, for a second,"

Elvina was silent for a moment. Sick so.go out and want to drink coffee? if you really want to drink coffee at home. I don't know why I came out. He said he was sick.

"Oh yeah, I hung up,"

Elvina keeps the phone away from the ear. After that he thought about what food Vano would want.

"Burp it a few times? he's gonna be sick again,”

“Yes has been pureed,"

Elvina ordered one more serving of porridge and then she ordered a vegetable porridge order Amih.

*****

"Crazy, until dizzy if he's angry. Especially if you've discussed it, he's like a reog exactly,"

Vano's opponent laughed and Ken finally laughed. What they discussed was of course Elvina, Vano's wife who almost drove Vano crazy every time they fought.

"By the way old cell phones are victims because he knows you called me,"

"Oh yeah? he dropped your phone?"

"Yes, after my phone, I finally had to buy a new one. He's been getting more and more frantic lately. Strange, when he said not love and usually also do not care about me, want me to be close to who the cake. Even I have a girl friend we keep close and she kayak bodo very. Until sometimes I sprained, why did he not have the slightest jealousy,"

"It's not like that if you don't love,"

"It's just that now I'm looking at it differently. But I don't want to think about anything at all. He often makes me disappointed. He used to say he wanted to learn to accept me, love me, improve relationships but usually no change,"

The woman chuckles at Vano who seems frustrated because her relationship with Elvina is increasingly unclear direction.

"Eh there's Vano. How come it's here?"

Vano turned his head when his name was mentioned by someone who once he saw his face was Agatha.

"Agatha isn't it?"

She hesitated because she was wearing a mask, a hat, and sunglasses. Suddenly the woman approached him.

"It's really me" he said, lowering the mask.

"Oh, really Agatha, what's the matter here? alone?"

"No, same with Mas Rendra. We want to eat donuts in this cafe. But Mas Rendra's in the toilet again,"

Elvina's view turned to the woman she had seen talking to Vano. The woman sat right in front of Vano.

Agatha looked at Vano as if asking "Who is this?"

"Eh yes knowin, Tha. Her name is Delila,"

Agatha nodded her head and smiled kindly at the woman named Delila.

"Hi, I'm Agatha" Agatha said as she reached out her hand and was immediately replied by Delila who mentioned her name as well.

"He's my acquaintance" said Vano introducing Agatha's status.

"Delila is your friend?"

Vano looked at Agatha and Delila alternately. He stayed silent for a while and nodded.

"Yes my friend, Tha,"

*****

Elvina entered the house by carrying a plastic bag containing porridge and also vegetable puffs. From outside the house she was confused because her husband's car was not there.

“Mih, this is the vegetable lontong,”

Amih came to him who brought vegetable porridge and chicken porridge to the dining table.

“Vano hasn't come home yet? He said just make a quick coffee ‘kan?”

“Numbered, Mom. Yes, Mr. Vano said he wanted to have a coffee for a while,”

“He left here himself? By car means yes?”

“Iya is alone, Mom, by car,”

“Mother has eaten?”

“I'm the same Miss Sutya. I met him at a different time. I take a shower first yes,”

“Iya, Ma,”

Elvina thought once she got home, her husband had arrived too, but she said only briefly.

“That's a real person copying what else huh? It's very suspicious. I'm out, he's coming out,”

Elvina stayed for a while in the room, while drying her sweat. After that, he rushed to shower. This time he wanted to soak.

****

Rendra and Agatha eventually join Ken's table with Delila. At Agatha's request. Rendra was uncomfortable. For there was a foreign woman whom He did not know, but his wife wanted to, he had to follow.

“I go home first yes,”

“Bareng aja same me, already want to go home also nih,”

“Eh no need, you continue to chat with Agatha Rendra, I can go home alone kok,” said Delila while smiling at Vano.

Vano who had wanted to take the end did not carry out his intention because Delila refused.

“That's your friend? Work buddy or what?”

As soon as Delila walked away, Rebdra asked the curious Vano who unexpectedly met her and Agatha at a cafe.

“Iya,”

“Sorry if you are not comfortable I ask that, but strangely you are just the same as him. Elvina isn't coming?”

“She's just left me at home, she's quiet, keep me sick again so don't work,”

“Well why did you even come out? He said it hurts, it should be a rest time, why do you come out try?”

“Yes, only I was bored earlier so I came here, kept meeting him,”

“Vano, even though my sister doesn't care, is cute, isn't jealous of you, but you can appreciate your sister's feelings a little?”

“She looks like she's jealous, Tha,”

“Keep why are you still the same woman if brother is jealous?”

“Yes nothing, people are just friends. He also has a close friend of a guy,”

Agatha clucked unhappily at Vano's casual-sounding speech when it came to her feelings.

“Yes don't do that, it's just your friend but don't know how your sister feels if you know you go with her, so wherever your sister remains your wife, unless her status is different, it's up to you to the same other women,”

“Lo nyubahin I changed my status nih?”

“Ya that's not it, just I'm confused, why tumben I saw you go with girl friends,”

“She's been to the same bar as another girl friend, what's her name? I forgot,” said Rendra who did not feel surprised, the opposite of his wife.

“Tata? He knows Elvina well,”

“But just stay, you should be able to keep your distance. This is the same road that was, Elvina know not?”

“Near road, meet here earlier,”

Rendra nodded her head. He thought Ken was deliberately taking the woman to the cafe and unbeknownst to Elvina.

“Udah, you both relax, I'm the same Elvina all right,”

“You say, Elvina is getting jealous? Which means good dong, which means Elvina's already starting to fear losing you, Van. It could be that he has started to love you,”

“Gue don't know, Tha. I can't say more, I'm afraid he will be disappointed again with him,”

“You are the same El well, Van, do not fight continue dong. I want people near me to get along, be peaceful, be peaceful, have no conflict whatsoever,”

“Hmm,”

Vano chose to mumble. Agatha did not know that lately the intensity of the quarrel He and Elvina more often and she realized it was because of the presence of other people between them.

“Eh How is your pregnancy? Healthy?”

“Oh yes forgot, I want a story, I'm pregnant with twins said the doctor,”

“Hah? Seriously lo?”

Vano patted Agatha on the shoulder and it made Rendra frown in dislike. “Don't play tepok! Lo male, Agatha chick, according to you slowly but it can be diseakinin, oon!”

Rendra's relationship with Vano is getting better and not awkward anymore. Starting from Rendra who no longer wants to deal with Elvina, Ken did not believe and remained jealous, but over time Rendra can convince Vano and Agatha that he really has forgotten the past and wants to focus on his marriage alone, finally Vano was gradually able to open up. The resentment in the heart for Rendra slowly ran out.

“Seriously, by the way Mas Rendra said, clap you pretty well yes,”

Vano laughed and apologized to Agatha, always trying to mediate when she knew that her relationship with Elvina was not okay.

“Sorry, I'm too excited to hear that. How could it be? What recipe?”

“There is no prescription, my people are the same Mas Rendra also shocked, suddenly the doctor said so,”

“Oh how do you keep going? Healthy ‘kan?”

“Health, Alhamdulilalh,”

“Elvina you tell me, Tha?”

“Hmm I have not told you anyway, want to talk in chat forget to continue,”

“Lo same he also rarely chatan kayaknya. Wh why? You're still jealous of her huh?”

“Hmm yes, sometimes. I'm afraid that it's just that,—

“Elvina already belongs to me, as well as Rendra who already belongs to you. As long as I'm with Elvina, I won't allow her to be with another, Tha, hopefully there are no dramas,”

“Last time did not need to be remembered again. Just look at what's in front of your eyes, rather than dizziness yourself,”

“Iya right! Watch out for anything!” Imbuh Vano recalls Rendra's comforting words to Agatha.

Agatha was terrified because she had been with Elvina in the past. He no longer wants to open the pages of the past.

“You want to live happily with me, don't you? People already want to have children, but still over thinking,”

“Udah, Tha. That you don't have to think about anything. Elvina also does not want to spoil the happiness lo time,”

Agatha also did not want to think too far but her brain was difficult to control. The problem is, Elvina still has a sense of Rendra to the point that her own husband is ignored. That's what makes Agatha anxious. Did He have to go far away so that there would be no more Elvina in his life?
